the.com/sausage
Meat's way of recycling itself into something you trust less but love more.
means A seasoned mixture of ground meat, fat, and spices packed into a casing (or formed into links), cooked and eaten as food.
from Traces back to Latin 'salsicia,' from 'salsus' meaning salted — the same root that gives us 'sauce' and 'salad.' The word traveled through Old French 'saussiche' before landing in English as 'sausage' around the 15th century. The name simply advertises the preservation method: salting meat into something that would keep (and taste good) long before refrigeration existed.
